Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are very nicely done, which is nothing new for Jules Jordan. The audio is clear and well balanced and I didn't notice any background noises. The video is presented in anamorphic widescreen and looks very nice. There's a couple moment with a bit of pixelation, but for the most part the picture is very clear and well lit with a solid hand on the camera whether it's a POV scene or a more straightforward shot scene.

Watermark Warning: Although I don't like to see watermarks, I don't blame studios for using them if they think it will stop piracy of their product if they can do it tastefully. Here, Jules Jordan Video does it fairly tastefully with a very small watermark in the lower right corner that stays stationary so that it's easy to filter out of one's mind. It would be better if it were a little lower and more to the side as it did start to intrude a few times and drew my eyes away from what they were wanting to see, but it's much better than some other watermarks I've seen.

The Movie: Asa Akira to the Limit collects five scenes featuring the 2012 AVN Female Performer of the Year where she gets to show off just why she was so deserving of the award.

Scene 1 – Asa Akira, Chris Strokes, Jules Jordan, and Steve Holmes

Asa shows off her great body outside wearing a red patent outfit laying on a pool chair and along a wall before heading up a staircase, showing off along a few railings, and strutting down to a white bed where the guys surround her to grope her, kiss her, and work on her bald pussy with their fingers and mouths. The guys quickly whip out their cocks for Asa to suck and stroke them, as well as fucking her calves. Jules moves in to take the first fuck missionary style before letting Steve spoon her with Asa continuing to suck plenty of cock. Jules, Chris, and Steve continue to make their way around fucking Asa in doggie and cowgirl before stretching out her sphincter reverse cowgirl style and quickly taking her into a double penetration. The guys back off a couple times to focus on fucking Asa's ass, and they let her suck her ass juices off their cocks before going back to DPing her and making her airtight in doggie and cowgirl. They fuck her ass a little more before giving her an impressive triple facial with Asa blowing plenty of cum bubbles while making sure to take a good face full of cum.

Scene 2 – Asa Akira and Jules Jordan

Asa crawls through a series of hallways in a sexy little black outfit as she makes her way to a room where Jules is waiting with a hard cock. She teases him briefly before moving in to suck and stroke him with some great eye contact and plenty of smiles mixed in. Asa strips down and plays with herself for Jules before he moves in to eat her box and fuck it missionary style. They mix in a bit more cocksucking for Jules as they move to the floor for Asa to ride him in the cowgirls, and she gives him a little more head and tease before letting her ass swallow his shaft reverse cowgirl style. Asa eagerly sucks her ass off Jules' cock as she moves on with a cowgirl, doggie, and missionary style rectal reaming. Asa also shows off some nice gapes, and finishes things with a very nice and happily received facial that she swallows down without missing a beat.

Scene 3 – Asa Akira and Nacho Vidal

Asa starts the third scene in a black patent fetishy outfit leading Nacho down a staircase by a leash attached to his cock. She strokes him and lets him grope her before Nacho fucks her thighs and she drops down to mouth his manhood with Nacho giving Asa a bit of extra help to get him into her throat. He drops down to eat her from behind as she strips down before they move to a bar chair where he takes her from behind. They move to a couch for a reverse cowgirl ride and for Nacho to play with Asa's holes with her bent in half pile driver style, and then move to an ottoman for him to take her from behind in each of her holes as she presents them to him. Asa also lays back for some anal missionary work and for Nacho to finger her to a squirt before they go back to the couch so Asa can suck Nacho clean and impale her ass on his cock reverse cowgirl style. Nacho continues to have his way with Asa's holes around the room between the barstools and couch before letting her have a nice pop in her mouth that Asa eagerly sucks up and swallows down.

Scene 4 – Asa Akira and Steve Holmes

Asa starts the penultimate scene in a bubble bath letting the water wash over herself as she plays with herself lightly and enjoys the pleasures of the shower head. She dries off with a red towel and walks into the bedroom to find Steve in a blonde wig sniffing her panties while wearing a red bra, panties, and stockings. Asa moves in to kiss him and put on a pair of yellow panties he chooses for her before he kisses her and plays with her pussy. Asa moves around to suck Steve's cock and balls while still in her panties before letting him move down to tongue and play with her holes. They work in a bit more oral play back and forth before Asa rides Steve cowgirl style and then lays back for him to tap her tushy missionary style. Asa happily sucks him clean and eats his ass before letting Steve have his way with her holes from behind and spooning her. They take to the floor to fuck in the cowgirls as well as going at it in doggie and the cowgirls on the bed. Finally Asa lays back to take a decent pop in her mouth from Steve, and makes sure to play with it a bit as she sucks every last bit out and kisses him on the lips.

Scene 5 – Asa Akira and Winston Burbank

Asa starts the final scene in a little pink bra and boyshorts with pink eye shadow and black shoes showing off by a wall filled with art. She strips down as she makes her way to a mattress on the floor and plays with herself naturally with a few tastes of her fingers mixed in before moving over to happily check Winston out through his shorts. Naturally Asa moves on to pull them out of her way so she can suck and stroke him before riding him cowgirl style. Asa goes back to happily sucking and stroking him before getting down for a very nicely received facial finish.

Not surprisingly, Asa Akira to the Limit is well worth the purchase for fans of Asa Akira. You get everything you'd hope to here with Asa and Jules from plenty of great tease to lots of enthusiastic anal action. Asa takes it up the ass in four of the five scenes, and manages to get facialized in all five of the scenes. The only things missing here for Asa is a little girl on girl action, a cream pie, or to take on somebody other than a white guy with a big dick. She starts things out very nicely with Jules, Chris, and Steve, and does just as good of a job taking on Jules and Steve in one on one scenes later. I'll admit to being a bit disturbed at Steve's cross-dressing scene, but at the same time I love that Jules is taking a risk doing something different like that rather than just sticking with the same formula all the time. Asa also turns out a very good scene with Nacho, and finishes things quite nicely with a POV scene with Winston. Through it all the action is nicely captured and moves along at a very nice pace. Yes, this one does come out a bit shorter than some of Jules' other releases, but it's solid rather than feeling rushed or drawn out. Asa Akira to the Limit is a very solid release, just as one would expect when one of the top performers in the business teams up with one of the top directors.

The Extras: Trailers are included for six other releases from Jules Jordan Video. The photo gallery lasts about five minutes. There's also a behind the scenes featurette, a bio for Jules Jordan, a cast listing by scene, cumshot recaps, and commercials.

The behind the scenes featurette lasts about eleven and a half minutes. Asa starts things out with a little extra footage taking on Nacho before moving on with a little footage from Steve's cross-dressing scene and the threesome. There's also a little extra footage from Asa's scene with Winston and Jules. This is a nice little collection of extra footage that should give Asa fans a little more to stroke to if they somehow didn't get enough in the main feature.

Condom Usage: None

Final Thoughts: If you're a fan of Asa Akira, it's well worth the purchase!

Note to Jules Jordan Video: I'll readily admit that I could have gone to my deathbed quite happily without ever seeing a cross-dressing Steve Holmes, but thank you for taking risks like that scene rather than going with the usual safe scenes.
